Spectators: 6649 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1649, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Ercüment Kutal started the match with the kick off. Yenal Özenli hit a great freekick 8 minutes into the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Merih Tura in the 14th minute of play forced Demirözü's goalkeeper Berkay Başkur to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Berker Ekin charged in rather forcefully in the 15th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Berker Ekin the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 15 played minutes Tekman got a freekick which was hit by Berker Ekin. When Yenal Özenli came up free with the goalie in the 20th minute, the Tekman fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Yenal Özenli couldn't finish the play. Ercüment Kutal struck a weak shot in the 22nd minute. Berkay Başkur didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Tekman.

Ercüment Kutal received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 42nd minute. Berkay Başkur tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Merih Tura sent away a hard shot on goal in the 45th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 48th minute, Caner Öktüre got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Coşkun Balkanlıoğlu to make the kick off. 1-0 became the score in the 58th minute when Sezer Zeynelabidin elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. In the 62nd minute, Yenal Özenli got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. A collision led to Demirözü getting a freekick after 64 minutes play. Caner Öktüre hit a great ball. After 65 played minutes, Tekman's Tevfik Şakir shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Berkay Başkur came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Tekman reached it. Tekman's Merih Tura got a good chance for a goal in the 66th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 67th minute, Caner Öktüre hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Ercüment Kutal in the 71st managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Berkay Başkur saved Demirözü from getting behind. If Sezer Zeynelabidin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 79th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Coşkun Balkanlıoğlu sent away a hard shot on goal in the 82nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

The referee ignored Demirözü's protests and gave Caner Öktüre a yellow card for diving instead. Berkay Başkur made an important save on a dangerous shot by Merih Tura in the 85th minute. If Ercüment Kutal had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 89th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ercüment Kutal recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 94th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Many of Tekman's supporters were seen to leave the ground early as it became clear their team was going to lose. Tekman may have spent more time on the ball, but Demirözü were more willing to take their chances and they walked away with the win.
